Welcome to Nemertea

We hope for this to become a central resource for nemertean research, where participants can maintain, edit and retrieve specimen-level data, taxonomic, phylogenetic, and biogeographical data, images and videos, bibliographic and other resources. Data are used where and when appropriate to populate species pages of the Encyclopedia of Life.

The 8th International Conference on Nemertean Biology, hosted and supported by Ocean University of China, was held from 23 June to 26 June 2014 in Qingdao, China. The next will be in Germany. The aim of these conferences is to provide a platform for nemerteanologists from all over the world to present their research results and exchange ideas. As those of the previous conferences, themes of this conference include all fields of nemertean biology (taxonomy, morphology, phylogeny, life histories, ecology, physiology and so on).
